These new regulations were published in economy, ecology, or to human health, and the species’ harmful September 2014, and became effective in March 2015. The new impacts significantly outweighs its benefits. Some of the invasive regulation (6 NYCRR Part 575 Prohibited and Regulated Invasive species found in the Lower Hudson Region are already widespread, Species) prohibits 69 plants, 15 fish species, 17 aquatic invertebrates, 5 while others can be established, emerging, or still a threat. There are terrestrial and aquatic vertebrates 3 species of algae and also species that are approaching the region, and can be found in cyanobacteria, and more. These prohibited species range from the neighboring regions. mute swan to hydrilla to the spiny water flea. This field guide does not list all of the species approaching or already in Aquatic Invasive Species now prohibited in NY include: the region. It gives a general overview of the most common species found throughout the area (water chestnut), and species that we are Killer Green Algae Bighead Carp on the lookout for (hydrilla).

Owners of each public boat launch Eastern Mosquitofish Vined Rapa Whelk shall conspicuously post the universal sign at each public boat Largescale Silver Carp Asian Sea Squirt launch in the state Silver Carp Mute Swan Stop Aquatic Hitchhikers There are many pathways for spreading aquatic invasive species. An invasive species can be introduced for cultural reasons (e.g. food), through accidental introductions (e.g. hitchhiker on boat, ballast water, dumping aquaria species), through the pet and aquarium trade (releasing aquarium pets and plants into a waterbody), bait, waterfowl, and more. The best defense that we have against new introductions is PREVENTION. An important way to prevent one of the biggest AIS pathways – hitchhikers on boats – is by using clean boating practices when entering a new body of water and before leaving a body of water. The three key components to clean boating include: Clean – Remove all visible mud, plants, fish, animal, organisms, and debris from your boat, trailer, and any equipment that came into contact with the water. Always clean your boat before leaving a body of water. Discard all potential hitchhikers in the proper disposal station when provided, or above the high water line. Drain – Eliminate water from all equipment (motors, live wells, ballast, waders, etc.) before leaving the site. Dry – Dry anything that came into contact with the water. If possible, decontaminate your boat and equipment with hot (<140°F), high pressure water. If this is not an option, allow your boat to dry for at least 5 days before entering new waters. 2 Chinese Mystery Snail Cipangopaludina chinensis/Bellamya chinensis A FIELD GUIDE TO Identification The Chinese mystery snail has large, globose, smooth, and strong shells. The shell can grow 6.5 cm in height, usually has 6-7 convex whorls and the inner coloration is white to pale blue. It exhibits light coloration as a juvenile and olive green, greenish brown, brown, or reddish brown coloration as an adult. The shell has an oblong-shaped operculum (“trap door”) THE LOWER HUDSON VALLEY’S AIS that displays concentric growth rings. The operculum allows the snail to close the opening of the shell when water conditions become unfavorable or when being attacked by a predator Impacts Chinese mystery snail was found to cause declines in growth and abundance of native snail species, likely through Native Range competition for food. They are also less vulnerable to predation by the invasive rusty crayfish due to their larger size The Chinese mystery snail is native to Eastern Russia, China, and thicker shells than native snails. The Chinese mystery snail Japan, Korea, Philippines, Taiwan, and Vietnam. can also reduce algal biomass, which changes the Nitrogen:Phosphorus ratio. They are also a nuisance to water Spread intake pipelines, often clogging the screens and inhibiting the flow of water. Probably introduced through the aquarium trade or as an Chinese mystery snails can also serve as vectors for importation for food markets, the Chinese mystery snail spreads transmitting parasites

The carcasses of fish with ligulid larvae were first found in the river-edge areas of Chilgok-bo in Nakdong-gang (River), Korea at early February 2016. This ecological phe- nomena also occurred in the adjacent areas of 3 dams of Nakdong-gang, i.e., Gangjeong-bo, Dalseong-bo, and Hap- cheon-Changnyeong-bo. Total 1,173 fish carcasses were collected from the 4 regions. To examine the cause of death, we captured 10 wondering carp in the river-edge areas of Hapcheon-Changnyeong-bo with a landing net. They were 24.0-28.5 cm in length and 147-257 g in weight, and had 2-11 plerocercoid larvae in the abdominal cavity. Their digestive organs were slender and empty, and reproductive organs were not observed at all.

Rome, FAO. 2007. 241 pp. ABSTRACT Cage and pen6 culture has a long history in China, but the development of modern intensive cage culture for food production and ornamental purposes dates from the 1970s. Cage/pen culture was first adopted in freshwater environments and more recently, in brackish and marine systems. Due to advantages like land and energy savings, high yields, etc., cage/pen culture has quickly expanded countrywide since the 1970s. In 2005, inland cages and pens occupied areas of 7 805 and 287 735 ha, respectively. The number of freshwater species cultured now exceeds 30 and includes fish such as carps, tilapias, breams, catfishes, trout, bass and perch, as well as crustaceans, turtles and frogs. Cages and pens in freshwater lakes and rivers yielded 704 254 tonnes and 473 138 tonnes of fish and other aquatic animals, respectively, in 2005.
